Pacific Science Center (under the Space Needle) has camps for kids. The counselors had advanced degrees from impressive Universities. We signed up William for the Amusement Park rides camp.
I was envisioning that they'd ride a roller coaster and make one. But they did more with other types of rides. I did feel sorry for them. They had said, "Tomorrow, you get to make your own ride!" William made plans to make a Tower of Terror type of ride, and was really disappointed when they made them do a merry-go-round type of one with a small motor. So, the camp gets a D on creativity, a C for food, a B on demonstrating real-life physics to children, and an A for counselors.
Every day we had to do the commute downtown. It wasn't too bad, because we could use the commuter lane. But coming home at night, getting out of north Seattle was a nightmare. I finally found a route that was less-time, but not after we spent quality time in a traffic bottle-neck. I have heard it has gotten worse, and the stations in Seattle have been reporting on it.
Uncle Noel was so cool. He'd ask William about his day and be so interested. We'd just gotten home in this pic, and Uncle Noel said, "Come into my office." He was sitting in the back of the Yoder, having a beer, so up William hopped!
William LOVES his cousins. I think he wanted more time with them. They are all ready to go to an Eagle Scout Court of Honor in this pic.
Aiden and Thayer got William hooked on Mine Craft. This is the game that never ends...
William is obsessed with playing in peaceful mode and building all the fun things he can get the basic products for. At one point, when we just got home, he called Aidan to figure something out. It was neat to see the cousin connection.
